We're the innovator of theVermont Release Calibrater

Welcome to

Vermont Ski Safety Equipment Inc.

The Vermont Release Calibrater is designed to measure the release torque of the Alpine ski to boot and binding systems. Three components are necessary to conduct all tests. The FOOT is a last, which is inserted into the boot. The LEG is an extension of the FOOT used for forward or backward lean tests. The ARM is a torque wrench, which is attached to the FOOT for twist release tests and to the LEG for forward or backward lean tests. Learn more »

How often do I have to inspect my Calibrater Arm (Torque Wrench)?

Routine Visual Inspection:
Visually Check the Calibrater Arm each day before use. If deficiencies are noted, consult the Maintenance and Repair section of the Calibrater Manual. Most routine maintenance and component replacement operations can be performed in shop. When returning the Arm to the factory for biennial calibration inspection or repair, other Calibrater components do not need to be returned to the factory except as required. Calibration Check:
At the beginning, and at least once during the season, the calibration of the ARM should be verified using a dead weight. See Appendix II of the Calibrater Manual. Any weight used should be checked on a state or federally certified scale. Calibration checks should also be made whenever the accuracy of the Calibrater is called into question.
